The Reference Connoisseur Series features the audio principles behind every Energy speaker:
- Flat On-Axis Frequency Response with Wide Bandwidth: Speakers should reproduce the entire audio range in a uniform manner. By ensuring that no one frequency dominates any other, With Veritas, every note is delivered accurately—and the sound is as natural as possible.
- Wide and Constant Dispersion: Sound at all frequencies radiating from the speaker is in an even pattern, in all directions throughout the room.
- Low Distortion and Resonance: No speaker system is distortion- or resonance-free, but Energy achieves a significantly lower distortion level, for a clearly audible improvement.
The RC-10 bass reflex bookshelf loudspeaker is packed with high-performance features:
The RC-10 bookshelf speaker delivers uncompromised performance from a speaker so small it virtually disappears into your room. With its wall mounting capability, three finish options and massive performance, most other bookshelf speakers just sound lame.
These speakers are hot! The RC-10 delivers kicking bass, clean high frequencies and detailed midrange. The RC-10 is all about the experience—the KevlarTM 5.5-inch Ribbed Elliptical Surround woofer and 1-inch chambered aluminum dome tweeter work together to pull you right into your music. This may well be the perfect bookshelf: cool styling, furniture grade finish, magnetic video shielding, port plugs for wall mount or cabinet installations and even an insert for the Energy MacromountTM bracket. Why look any farther?
Maximum performance tips
The distance between speakers typically should be 6-8 feet at minimum for good stereo imaging. The optimum room shape should be rectangular, with the speakers along one of the shorter walls, facing the opposite side. Placement against a wall or the rear of a bookshelf is not recommended; corner placement is usually the worst option. Try to keep the speakers—especially rear vented models like the RC-10—at least two feet from the surface behind it.
